I sold that motor to member GTO TEX here. He`s using it in a 2`nd gen Trans Am. I showed him the boss before he bought it. He bought it anyway.


He`s telling me the damn thing goes 12.7`s in the quarter with 2.41 gears at full weight. So, the motor is no slouch.


Maybe give him a pm to see what he did.
Didn't need the broken boss since it was going into an F body. This is the mounts I used https://butlerperformance.com/i-2445...tegory:1393551
